In an interview after the match against FaZe at ESL Pro League Season 18, Natus Vincere coach Andrey "B1ad3" Gorodenskiy told how he was coping with the transition from Russian to English in the team. He noted that in general, the changes were quite easy, but there are still some difficulties.
It's not super complicated, but, yeah, there is some little issues, but I don't think it effects really much how we communicate. We may delay sometimes in discussions for one-two seconds, but for us it's not a problem.Andrey "B1ad3" Gorodenskiy
NAVI changed the language of communication for the first time in its history this summer with the arrival of Aleksi "Aleksib" Virolainen, Mihai "iM" Ivan, and Justinas "jL" Lekavicius. Of the previous team, only Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev had played in an English-speaking team before: for Liquid in 2016. For Valeriy "b1t" Vakhovskiy, this experience is new.
